Late disseminated Lyme disease can present with symptoms such as Arthritis, typically affecting large joints like the knees, neurological symptoms like facial palsy or neuropathy, heart problems like irregular heart rhythms, and cognitive issues such as memory loss and difficulty concentrating. If you suspect you have late disseminated Lyme disease, it's important to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
The symptoms of Lyme disease are typically divided into three stages: early localized, early disseminated, and late. Neurologic complications are most common in disseminated and late-stage Lyme disease
The most common symptom of late disseminated Lyme disease is swelling and pain in a few large weight-bearing joints, most often the knee. The affected joints are typically much more swollen than painful
Persistent Lyme disease refers to symptoms that persist for weeks to years despite receiving appropriate treatment for Lyme disease. Symptoms may include fatigue, joint and muscle pain, cognitive issues, and neurological problems. The underlying cause of persistent symptoms is not fully understood and treatment can be challenging.
A late-stage complication of Lyme disease is Lyme arthritis, which involves joint pain and swelling that can become chronic. Another complication is neurological symptoms such as inflammation of the brain or nerves, leading to issues like Bell's palsy or memory problems.
Lyme disease can affect cognitive function, causing symptoms like brain fog, memory problems, and difficulty concentrating. In some cases, this can impact IQ test performance, but it doesn't directly lower a person's intelligence. Treatment for Lyme disease can help improve cognitive symptoms.
Patients with Lyme disease may be consulted with infectious disease specialists, rheumatologists, neurologists, and dermatologists. Additionally, primary care physicians may also be involved in the management and treatment of Lyme disease.
With prompt diagnosis and appropriate treatment, the prognosis for Lyme disease is generally good. However, in cases where the disease is not promptly treated, complications can occur, affecting various systems in the body such as the nervous system, joints, and heart. It is important to seek medical attention early to prevent long-term consequences.
